The tcpclientaddress option specifies a TCP/IP address if your client node has more than one address, and you want the server to contact an address other than the one that was used to make the first server contact.
The server uses this address when it begins the server prompted scheduled operation.
Use this option only if you use the prompted parameter with the schedmode option.
If sessioninitiation is set to serveronly, the value for the tcpclientaddress client option should be the same as the value for the HLAddress server setting.
